I think the Senate should be expanded to three Senators per state (150 total) to smooth out the irregularities of each state getting two elections in six years. Better to have each state have a Senatorial election every two years, so the people of every state have a chance to express their opinion of the government on a regular basis.

Every member of Congress sits on at least one committee. Once in Congress they can request certain committees but it’s not always granted

AFAIK, earmarking is dead, and has been for some time.

Wasn't there just some big outrage over Microsoft making Skype launch automatically on all PCs upon startup?
...still very few users.
